Another in the series of tutorials on how to tear down and repair your Motorola V3 RAZR mobile phone. The guide will cover how to remove the back cover (also known as a backplate or skin) on your Motorola V3 phone. This guide assumes that you have successfully removed both the battery and the SIM card from your Motorola V3 mobile phone.

Here is the step-by-step guide:

1. Remove the battery cover, battery, and SIM as described in theprocedures.

2. Using a Torx driver with a T-5 bit (note, current V3 models require a T-6 Torx bit for the back cover housing screws), remove the screws at each side of the phone. Retain the screws for reassembly.

3. Release the four housing latches by inserting the pointed end of the plastic disassembly tool (also known as a non-marring pry tool) into the openings on the rear housing.

Thank you! My daughter had her phone in a pants pocket that went through the wash. Your instructions were really helpful in letting me know where to push/prod to get the phone apart and how the pieces fit in getting it back together. The phone is charging up now and seems to work fine.
